> do you think an addict is just going to shrug and toss it in the trash?

I assume they'd have a word with their dealer? Or at least adjust the dose?

Test strips are not just for addicts. Casual users use them as well. Believe it or not some dealers also use them.

I mean if that were the case, they wouldn’t test to begin with. I agree it’s a difficult, morally fraught problem but this extra tool doesn’t feel like that to me. Plus think of the casual coke user like a college kid; they might test and their life might be saved.

Yeah you’re right, all addicts are equally stupid and are uniformly unaware that a positive fentanyl result can mean instant death. /s

Fentanyl strips are not only for drug addicts. Anyone buying recreational drugs is affected by such legislation.
